EXPERIENCE

My background & expertise

CRAG APPAREL CO - FOUNDER

August 2020 - Current

One thing I've always tried to do is to try and combine my passions into some sort of project. 
I wanted to combine my passion for climbing for this project, my love of simple, clean aesthetics, and athleisure fashion. However, what this project allows me to do is to learn how to run an online business first hand. 
Although this is mainly a side hustle for me,  it allows me to learn online marketing, social media, website management, customer service and more.

Here at Crag, we are climbers, first and foremost. We are adventurers and explorers looking for the next best route or boulder problem. When we started Crag, we realised that we were either paying crazy prices for big brand climbing t-shirts or faced with the option of getting unsustainable, cheaply made, boring clothing. We decided that we needed to change that. We wanted something for us. Here at Crag, we believe in stylish, high-quality, sustainable clothing at an affordable price. We want to look good, feel great, and climb hard.

INTERESTS AND HOBBIES

MUSIC PRODUCTION

My music background comes from playing the piano, guitar and drums from a very young age. I then moved on to DJing at the age of 16, followed by becoming obsessed with producing on DAWs. Now, my setup includes beat makers, samplers, synthesizers, loopers and my trusty guitars.

SPORT AND FITNESS

I've always loved fitness and sport, whether it be as a spectator or an athlete.
I enjoy participating in football, basketball, volleyball, outdoor sports (climbing, hiking) and water sports (wakeboarding, SUP, Kayaking)

ART AND PHOTOGRAPHY

Forever learning the art of photography, I'm currently using a Sony A7 and Polaroid JobPro 600.
I also love drawing and painting. I do most of my drawing on Procreate, which is the main program I use for Crag Apparel Co, while most of the painting I do is acrylic on canvas.
